Enron was a case where a company's leaders didn't do what was in the company's owners' best interests. Verizon is doing precisely what is in its owners' best interests. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19930524 Mon, 04 Feb 2008 08:27:09 EDT Re: Deregulate, Divide, and Conquer http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19930517 bicker : The good folks of Virginia are smart. That has nothing to do with this, since a smart person in a capitalist society will embrace competition, and allow competitive businesses the freedom that comes from deregulation.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19930517 Mon, 04 Feb 2008 08:25:31 EDT Re: Deregulate, Divide, and Conquer http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19926872 Mordhem : yup!!!

If they do decide that they want to deregulate and raise their rates, I will drop them like a hot potato, and will not have a home phone...after all, I barely use 450 minutes on my cell phone per month.
Thereby PROVING what Verizon says - that they have competitors and should be deregulated.
